I guess that's because I don't know what a DIN 41419 is, and don't know what
size a "Eurocard" is, nor why that would be a desirable size.

The board is basically built around the prototype area.  I'm currently
thinking the board will be about 6" wide, which accomodates the 50 prototype
columns with room for rubber feet or mounting holes.  Extra connector pads
could fit in the extra width not used up by the mounting.
